Tuition
Foundation in Music and Sound is taught by James Muxworthy who runs the audio production company Helical Blue.
These lessons are probably a little different from traditional private music lessons in that they aim to develop a broad interest, knowledge and ability in music and sound, whilst also having the focus of learning an instrument or technology skills. There is something for all ages:
Although the emphasis is on fun and enjoyment a certain level of commitment is required from the student. So to gain the most from these lessons, some practice and 'homework' will be required. The key is to want to play and practice rather than it becoming a chore. So you'll be playing lots of different music as well as other fun and creative tasks outside of the lessons. Each lesson is designed to suit the individual and will develop playing of the instrument, creative and listening skills, appreciation of different musical styles and even a bit of science!
There
are three main types of exciting lessons taught:
- Music lessons based on learning to play the piano/keyboard including a range of other practical and theory based activities for the student to enjoy, providing an excellent grounding in music and sound. This is suitable for all ages from around age 6 upwards. Find out more
- Practical Introduction to Music Technology and Sound recording - This covers the 'techy' world of music and sound. From age 11. Find out more
- Piano/Keyboard for playing in a band. Even once your're fairly proficient at playing the piano there's is still a lot to learn when it comes to playing keyboards in a band. This tuition develops skills to proficently play in a group and 'fit in' with the other musicians. This course also includes an introduction to composing and playing by ear.
